Dear colleagues,<\/em><\/em><\/p>\n

I am delighted to share that Michelle Grady has been promoted to President of Sony Pictures Imageworks. <\/em><\/em><\/p>\n

Under Michelle’s leadership for the last seven years, Imageworks has become the most innovative and ground-breaking visual effects and animation facility in the world, renowned for its work on first of their kind CG features and large scale live-action VFX projects.<\/em> Michelle and her talented team contributed greatly to the phenomenal success of Sony Pictures Animation’s visually spectacular Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, which has won the hearts of critics and audiences around the world and earned nearly $690 million globally. <\/em><\/em><\/p>\n

With the studio’s headquarters in Vancouver, an office in Culver City, and its recent expansion into Montreal as well as a growing repertoire of films – including Academy Award winning film Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, the Academy Award nominated films The Mitchells vs. the Machines and The Sea Beast, and Guardians of The Galaxy Vol. 3 – Michelle is well positioned to further Imageworks’ remarkable growth and continue to break new ground.<\/em><\/em><\/p>\n

Please join me in congratulating Michelle.<\/em><\/em><\/p>\n
